Reflections:snoitcelfeR
This week, we received the following from Sally Russick who has been coming up with interesting ideas for us to use as photography inspiration points for almost a year.
REFLECT: The start of the Holiday Season is coming up quickly whether we are ready or not, so before jumping into all the hustle and bustle let's take a moment to slow down and reflect on all the joy, peace, happiness and love we already have in our life.
I reflected on this theme, and decided that I would go for the literal photographic interpretation...I love photos of water reflecting light, foliage, and the sky. I also found an opportunity to show the moon reflecting sunlight, and the clouds reflecting the moonlight. And, as my husband pointed out, without reflection, we wouldn't see anything. Deep, no?
But that thought is about as deep in thought as this blog goes. I'm not sure how I would reflect my reflections on life in these pictures, but I hope they prove to be soothing and a suitable lead in to our busy holidays.
Monday I went out in the morning to look for reflections.

| First I found a really cool effect of the sun reflecting off of power lines. |
 |
| Then I found a small stream, you wouldn't notice it but for the reflections it showed. |
 |
Reflecting on this guy, he was so cooperative, letting me take tons of pictures.
He is a Muscovy duck, likely a pet, because these ducks aren't native here. |

But today, I tried something a bit different, I was looking for reflections at the other end of the day.
 |
If you look closely, you can see that there are geese in this picture,
and they generate a little pool of reflection around them. |
 |
| Sunset on the water. Enough said. |
 |
| Moonlight reflecting on clouds, seen through the last of the leaves. |
Goodnight Moon.
See what the others are doing with reflection.
